Bobby,

IIUIR, you are pluming:

1) Each tank to the Andair

2) From the Andair to the pumps

3)...rest of the plan

If so, Why not use 1/2" lines Until the pumps?

Do you use any kind of by-pass for the filters?

Subject: [FlyRotary] RV10 Fuel System.. Expensive

This is hopefully my final design for my fuel system.

1. Use Andair duplex valve and mount to floor with extension. The 10 has a console.

2. Use (expensive) Y blocks to reduce bends and provide sensor ports.

3. Filter before and after pumps.

4. Auto fail over circuit to switch on second pump at 28 psi.

5. High pressure bleeder.

6. 3/8 lines.

7. All cabin fuel plumbing mounted to plate on floor.

8. Firewall bulkheads on cool side of engine.

The pressure drop and flow rate of the AC Delco Filters is unknown...AC Delco will not provide specifications. Will need to measure.

This is the same basic configuration the EGG's are running so it should provide a larger group of planes with this design in the air sooner.

Flame away!!
